[systemd-devel] [PATCH] clarify message when unit action fails

[Andrey Borzenkov]

I was rather surprised to see "Starting of tmp.mount failed"
during shutdown and spent some time searching for wrong dependencies
until I realized that systemd always says "Starting" in this case.

Clarify error message by actually naming action that failed.

I tried to rephrase message in the least intrusive way. Not being
native English speaker, I appreciate corrections.
